  • Rented a cabin by the River and the Pavillion for a surprise birthday party. Everything was perfect. No issues. Great views. Plenty of seating. Firepits were amazing. It was a smooth process. Staff was very helpful. Would highly recommend Suwannee Gables for an event like this. We were very pleased.
